Chapter 538: Base Camp

Naturally, a drink can't replace breakfast, and Ji Ran can't light a fire in the treehouse...... What should I do if I set the treehouse on fire?

Of course, Elven King City will not be so fragile, and an accident can occur with a single fire. But if it was possible, Ji Ran naturally didn't want to provoke the disgust of the Elf King City...... And the atmosphere here also made him unbearable to destroy.

So, the group left the house and landed on the ground from the Elven King's City. The members of the guard, who had helped them to arrange their accommodation yesterday, told them how to leave.

Below the Elven King City is a square, which was yesterday's main battlefield. It's pretty much cleaned up now...... In the Elven Forest, it's hard to leave a trail of blood or something that can't be washed away.

As soon as the roots of those big trees are turned over, the dirt will automatically cover up the bloodstains.

Therefore, it seems here now, except for some damage, there is nothing else to see the vicissitudes of life after the war.

Below the Elven King City is a large square, and although it is still early in the morning, there are already many elves walking around...... No matter how you look at it, it's not a great place for a picnic either.

So the group left the square and came to a small clearing in the forest outside.

There is a small stream flowing slowly, and the fragrance of birds and flowers all around makes people feel calm. Ji Ran once again confirmed that the Elven Forest is really a good place to retire.

It's just that the elves around don't seem to be that interesting...... Compared to humans, elves have a somewhat lower emotional intelligence...... It's not low, it's just a little weird.

If they identify with a person, they can also fight for that person...... But they seldom get together in large groups like dwarves to eat and drink. The laughter is non-stop.

If there's a celebration or something. The elves also sing and dance. And it's beautiful...... But that kind of atmosphere is not suitable for sitting on the side, lighting a bonfire, and then eating barbecue and drinking ale.

It's a minor flaw, but it's not a big deal. This place is just like those sanatoriums in the previous world of Ji Ran, it is a place where people can feel at peace and forget about jì a qiē.

Coming to this clearing, the factor of the adventurers of all the people has recurred. Collect wood, dig pits, and light bonfires. Take water from the creek, catch a few fresh fish by the way, and then find some mushrooms and wild vegetables in the woods next to it, and a breakfast is settled.

Although it was in the Elven Forest, this atmosphere still gave everyone the feeling of having an adventure together. Everyone laughed and laughed, and even Erin made a rare joke...... This is already her extremely happy expression.

Old friends are together, and there is no sense of strangeness that they haven't seen each other for more than two years...... Although they were together before, an invisible pressure has been pressing on Erin's body. And now, at least temporarily. Erin had shaken off that pressure.

It's really my greatest luck to have such a group of companions...... Erin looked at the laughing crowd. The corners of his mouth also hooked up an arc.

The breakfast was very rich, and in addition to the things found on the spot, Ji Ran also got some rice - in the Elven Forest, this kind of food is not uncommon - plus some various ingredients that Ji Ran would never lack in his space pocket, so that everyone once again experienced the feeling of having a stomach.

After eating and drinking, Erin led everyone around to play.

The forest of elves is not very peaceful, there are also fights between animals, and there are also demonic beasts to demarcate their own territory. Although the Tree of Life favors elves, it does not discriminate against other animals or magical beasts...... In the eyes of the elves, creatures without intelligence are actually much easier to communicate with than humans or dwarves.

But it's not like there's nothing like monsters hurting people - oh no, hurting elves. If a monster that is too vicious appears, then the elven guards will be dispatched to drive them out of the elven forest...... Unless they do too much evil, the Elven Guards will not kill the Demon Beast lightly.

This place is close to the Elven King City, and there are no fierce demon beasts. Therefore, the group visited very pleasantly.

They followed the creek to the side of the Emerald Lake. The Emerald Lake seen from mid-air is incomparably beautiful, like a large piece of crystal clear jade; And when you look closer, the lake is just as refreshing.

The sparkling, gentle breeze caressing, and fresh water vapor hitting the face, makes people feel relaxed and happy. Although he had been in this world for several years, Ji Ran would still be amazed by this scenery - in his original world, he had no chance to see this kind of scenery at all.

The group went around the Elven King City in a big circle, and saw the animals in the Elven Forest that are not afraid of people, all kinds of special flowers and plants, the tree people who may be able to say a word, and the elves who planted fields...... That's right, the elves are also going to plant the fields. Otherwise, where will the elves get the rice and the grain?

Even if it is an elf, it is not a race that can survive by gathering alone.

In the hands of those elven farmers, Ji Ran bought a large amount of rice...... He missed the food so much. Along the way, he also collected a lot of ingredients unique to the Elven Forest, and planned to study them when he returned and cook a few delicious dishes.

This kind of life makes them forget about the outside world, forget that the true god cultists are still ready to move somewhere on the mainland, forget that they still have to improve their strength, and forget that there are still bad difficulties and obstacles to overcome...... The Elven Forest is really a great place to rest, but it's also a great place to burn off your morale.

The elves have the tree of life and the entire Elven Forest, but they have never thought of expanding outward to gain more land and power, and it has to be said that it has something to do with this atmosphere in the Elven Forest. On the other hand, once they encounter a disaster like the previous one, they will be more at a loss...... There are pros and cons to this.

Fortunately, the elven queen was still awake and was not affected by this atmosphere. The same goes for the Elven Guards and Patrols, which makes the Elven Forest truly a place beyond this continent...... Otherwise, if nothing else, greedy humans can turn this place into a scorched earth......

After a few days of playing, the Elven Queen sent someone to find Erin and them again, and asked them to go to the Queen's bedchamber together.

Looks like. It's a little bit of a pry open to the mouths of the true gods. The group took the sightseeing elevator again. Arrived at the Queen's bedchamber.

This time. The queen met not only Ji Ran and others, but also many elves standing here. Among them, there are the gold-level elves who fought until the end of the last battle and let the opponent run away, there is the captain who commanded the elven guards to fight, and a few elves who don't know each other...... Ji Ran knew that those elves were almost all gold-level powerhouses.

casually swept it, and Ji Ran found that Fred was also among them. Maybe it's his identity as the successor of the Divine Tree. Let him be qualified for such an occasion.

With the entry of Ji Ran and the others, most of the elves caressed their chests and saluted them - the title of honorary resident of the Elven Forest was not given for nothing, which showed that Ji Ran and the others were the benefactors of the elf clan.

The elven race is also a race that will repay kindness, and respect for them is the least. Even those elves who didn't give a salute nodded to them slightly-this was normal, Ji Ran and the others couldn't expect those gold-level powerhouses to also apply that kind of heavy etiquette to them.

"The Tree of Life has received some news from the dreams of those True Gods." The elven queen's expression was stern and she looked at everyone.

Ji Ran and the others also stood aside like the other elves, listening to the elf queen's words. Sure enough, this is the case...... It is impossible to search the brains of true gods with soul magic, but the Tree of Life can use dreams to achieve this...... The Tree of Life. It's unfathomable.

"Because of the uncertainty of dreams, the tree of life must not invade their souls too much. So the information obtained is somewhat vague. But the most critical part, we've got. ”

The Elven Queen stood up and rested her scepter on the ground.

"The base camp of the True God Order, on the western plateau."

"Western Plateau?" Immediately, an elf exclaimed, "Those orc territories? ”

The Elven Queen nodded: "That's right, it's the territory of those orcs." In fact, we suspect that the True God Order should have brought some powerful orc tribe under control...... From there, they intend to attack the entire continent. ”

Everyone fell silent. Orc territory! No one thought it would be there!

As I said before, the orcs have simple thinking, so the soul energy is not strong. Not to mention that compared with the long-lived race of elves, it is far from being compared to humans. Sacrificing orcs to gain the favor of the true gods is basically the most thankless task.

But I didn't expect them to build their base camp over there!

"Actually, if you think about it, it's a matter of course." The Elven Queen paced a few steps and raised her head, "Orcs have simple brains, and even gold-level powerhouses are easily agitated. Isn't this kind of race a good place for the True God Order to develop its followers? ”

It dawned on everyone. That's right, those orcs are stupid and have bad brains, so they should be easier to deceive!

It is almost impossible to know what the exact origin of the True God Order is, but everyone knows that they have relied on crazy brainwashing to achieve this. And the object of brainwashing, isn't the stupider the better? How can people who are too smart be brainwashed so easily?

So far, there are almost no elves in the True God Order, and it is because the elves are so intelligent and vigilant that they can hardly be fooled by the True God Order. Dwarves and elves are different, and the biggest reason why they are not encouraged by the True God Order is that they are too stubborn......

Only the human race, this complex and contradictory race, became the soil for the development of the True God Order. Whether it was before or now, the land of mankind has always been the place where the true gods have the most frequent activities.

And now, everyone thinks that orcs are actually easier to become true gods than humans!

However, the muscular race of orcs can hardly complete all kinds of intrigues and tricks, and summon true god clones one after another...... Therefore, if the base camp of the True God Cult is placed on the territory of the orcs, there must be other considerations!

"In this way, the True God Cult has controlled the Western Plateau for a long time......" An elven powerhouse muttered for a while, muttering to himself.

"It's not control, it can only be said to be latent before. But according to the information we have received from the dreams of those true gods, it is different now...... It seems that the Order of the True God has finally made up its mind to do something. ”

The elf queen is also solemn now. (To be continued......)
